Comcast Files New Pole Complaint Against Virginia Utility
The cable company and the Appalachian Power Company have been unable to resolve a dispute over pole replacement costs
WASHINGTON, July 7, 2026 – Comcast is again asking federal regulators to intervene in a longrunning dispute over pole attachments in Virginia.
The Federal Communications Commission ruled in February that the Appalachian Power Company (APCo) couldn’t charge the cable giant the full replacement cost of poles that already weren’t up to code before Comcast sought to attach extra equipment.
